last week i received the new full length from band marino called the sea & the beast. so far, the best description i've been able to come up with is banjo twangin' nasal-rock. luckily for them, i dig all things banjo.
the band hails from orlando, fl where they will release their album on dec. 2. nathan bond handles the vox and is also the main songwriter. as for that magical banjo i mentioned earlier, that's courtesy of jonathan nee (the one in the hat). the entire cd is so... so, um... unusally awesome, that it's hard to pick a favorite song. i will say that "como se dice, senorita act 1: the laymen's lament" and "feel it in the air" are quickly growing on me. check it out for yourself and then head over to their myspace to stream more.
fans of the boy least likely to feast your ears:

Podcast? You overachievers.
hey, what can i say? we're ambitious.
Yet, amazingly enough, we have still not done the podcast.
We will, though.
I know now why I've heard of this band before...I did a little write-up on them in March during the whole SXSW thing. I dug them then, and I'm still digging them. Good pick, Allister!
